Verse 1
(G major) I don't (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) know
much
about South Africa as a land
Is it big, it green, is it jungle, is it sand?
Are the street (D major) s safe at night
or do the people just watch TV?
(G major) I only know (C major) how it feels (G major)
to look at a (C major) prison so unreal
(G major) Standing across (C major) the (G major) sea,
(D major) they shall be free (G major)
I don't know much about
apartheid as a plan
Does it multiply or divide
the worth of a man?
Is it a the (D major) ory or a science
or just a tragedy? (G major)
I only know (C major) I could not sleep (G major)
at the edge (C major) of a hole so deep (G major)
I know what (C major) has to (G major) be (D major)
They shall be free (G major)
They shall be free
(D major) in the prayers of good men and (G major) wo men
They shall be free
(D major) in the heart of a just and divine real (G major) ity
They shall be free
(D major) in the songs of the rivers
and the moun (E minor) tains
They shall be free
(A minor) in the dreams of (G major) a world yet
to be (F major) (D major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
I don't know much about
politics as a profession
Does it mean leadership
or only (C major) true (G major) confessions?
And what can one (D major) man do
for another man's liberty? (G major)
I only know (C major) there is a light
(G major) that won't pretend (C major) something is right, (G major)
when it's just (C major) as wrong (G major) as can (D major) be.
They shall be (G major) free.
They shall be free (D major)
in the prayers of good men an (G major) d
They shall be free (D major) in the heart of
the just and divine real (G major) ity.
They shall be free, (D major)
the songs of the rivers and
the moun (E minor) tains
They shall be free, (C major)
the dreams of (G major) a world yet to be (F major) (D major)
I don't know (G major) much about
South Africa as (C major) a (G major) nation
I (C major) keep see (G major) ing it on the
television presentation (C major)
(G major) With (C major) the guns (D major) and the gas
and the sticks and the brutality
(G major) And though my voice (C major) it may be weak (G major)
You know the truth (C major) of what I speak (G major)
What you do (C major) to my brother,
(G major) you do to me (D major)
And we shall be (G major) free (C major) (G major)
Mmm, we shall (C major) be (G major) free (C major)
(G major) Yeah, we (C major) shall (G major) be free, we (C major) shall be (G major) free
(C major) (G major)
